I just joined Facebook this weekend; a friend has been bugging me about it for months and I finally gave in.
Must say it's worth the effort for the neat pics (party, vacation, etc.) people post but as far as 'Status' goes...who cares if somebody just got home from work, needs sleep, has to get up 8am, etc.
Anyway, still getting used to it, seems like fun long as I don't get TOO caught up in the humdrum aspects. Who knows, might even find a long lost friend/acquaintance!!!

I'm on facebook as well about a week ago an old classmate of mine added me as a friend. What blew my mind about this is her and I never spoke to each other during school, heck in fact we hated each others guts.  Beware of friend-count boosting. Peeps who you didn't speak to at school - and if you saw them on the street, you'd hardly acknowledge each other - but are quite happy to have you sitting in their 'Friends' list, reading their hourly updates. It's a big ball of self-serving if not self-conscious identity-forging.

Is there any particular advantage to 'friend-count boosting'??? Or is it just something people do to try & show off and add superficial meaning to their otherwise empty lives? (Sort of like when people would post endless, one-line nonsense all over the Gangster BB just to get their 'post-count' up...???)  Apple

I was shocked to see how many "friends" I have on mine (32). I look at Facebook as an online address book. And if I ever want to get in touch with someone that I haven't talked to for a while I have them on my facebook and it's a convenient way to find them.
For example, I have De Niro on my facebook. We don't ever talk on there, but if for some reason he disappeared from the BB, then I have an alternate way of contacting him to see what's up.

For those of you I haven't connected with, you can find me on Facebook as Roxanne Wiese. Im a social butterfly and I like Facebook. You can do as much or as little with it as you want, but it is a great way to share family pictures and plans with others... Good to be back! 
I have a tendency to wear my heart on my sleeve -

I am off to meet an old school pal tonight. We re-connected through Facebook. We have not laid eyes on each other for 21 years. I hope she doesn't show up with a 20 year old .
